OK, IAC has updated the stats again -- I am not sure what the cut-off date for these numbers are, but here goes:

1.) IAC (joined Nov 1st)
There's A Drought Going On
Raw Plays: 155
Unique Plays: 148
This Band Oughta Disband
Raw Plays: 126
Unique Plays: 121

1.) Soundclick: ALL of 2007!
There's A Drought Going On: Plays: 140
This Band Oughta Disband" Plays: 77

The bottom line seems to be that you will get your stuff heard a lot more at IAC (if the stats are accurate). All I did was to say hello in the "pipeline" message board and then send request to 3 or 4 country stations to listen/add my songs to their station. This Band Oughta Disband made it onto the KIAC Hitline list on the IAC's page 1 -- but There's a Drought Going On still got more plays.

When I do my 2008 RPM Challenge CD is February, I may have to look at joining IAC Prime so I can post more than 2 songs (it seems pretty cheap). At that time, I will also decide if I want to try and sell some stuff -- if the tunes are good enough (but ya know, there's no accounting for tastes, LOL!).

I hope this helps.
